Veteran Nigerian music producer and record executive, ID Cabasa has posited that numerous individuals in Nigeria’s entertainment industry require emotional healing.
He further noted that Nigerians often ridicule and pass judgment on those who are undergoing personal recovery.
In a recent post on his X account, ID Cabasa emphasized that many individuals seek closure; however, when they attempt to voice their struggles, they often encounter division, as “People pick a side” instead of offering support.
“We need to treat Trauma more in Naija, A lot of people need closure, unfortunately when they speak up rather than finding healing “People pick side” We mock/blame/judge people for things they need healing from.
“The entertainment industry has many stars that need healing. But commentators deepen their pain by criticising them rather than showing empathy.
“So a lot is locked in so as to appear STRONG while dying internally even when they cry out for help, we gloss over it
as entertainment.”
